As of today Davis has had a temp. of at least 99 up to 103(the first week) for 16 days straight. Today has been one of his better days. He woke up with a temp. of 101. By 10:30 is was 99...he has actually felt pretty good, not as tired and weak. I am praying that this crazy virus is on it's way out the door, although that's what I thought last week too...
We are waiting for lab results of a mono test. I am anxiously awaiting the doctors phone call. Not that there is much you can do for mono except rest,rest,rest. It will just be nice to know why he has felt so bad for so long.
It has been a roller coaster having a sick 10 year old boy. As soon as he starts feeling better he wants to go back to school or to an activity... even though an hour before feeling better he was curled up in a ball on my bed with a high temp. He has cried and been angry several times, mostly with me. He gets mad that I kept him home and furious that he had to have blood drawn... "WHY DID YOU HAVE TO BRING ME TO THE DOCTOR!", he kept telling me.
I know that God will take care of us. I know that things will get better. Please continue praying. Please pray for the mothers who have gone through or currently have a sick child on a much grander scale. I can't even imagine...

Michelle, I am sorry to hear that he is not better by now. I know that you are put in the "bad guy" position and it is hard even though you know you are doing what is best. I will pray that he gets better soon, that you figure out what is going on, that you will not have to be the "bad guy."
Oh, Michelle! I'm so sorry he is so sick. It is so miserable to watch your babies feel bad!
That does stink when they blame you! I had to threaten one of mine recently to go to the allergy doctor or try yrtec-D every day for a month to take care of his cough.
Hope he improves for good!
I am so sorry. Poor guy (and mama!)
